MICHAEL GALLAGHER THE SILHOUETTE Hamilton — Back in the summer of 2012, music fans were greeted with the eccentric sounds of Purity Ring, an Edmonton-based dream- pop duo consisting of Megan James (vocals) and Corin Riddick (instru- mentals). Far from their reserved name, Purity Ring’s debut album Shrines offered an unconventional fusion of modern sounds by blending hip-hop and dubstep influences with eerie vocal lines and mourn- ful lyrics to create something fresh and exciting. In doing so, Purity Ring – along with other artists like Grimes – showed there was more to indie music than simple guitar lines and repetitive choruses.

BOBBYISMS BOBBY FOLEY

It has been over 10 years since west coast power-punk outfit Limblifter released an album, but to hear front man Ryan Dahle describe it, the band’s upcoming album, Pa- cific Milk, is just the latest chapter in a story that’s still unfolding. Produced by Ryan in East Van- couver, Pacific Milk is the group’s fourth full-length and first recorded output for the band – brothers Ryan and Kurt Dahle on guitar and drums respectively, bassist Megan Brad- field and guitarist Greg MacDonald – since the 2004 release I/O. To celebrate the album’s arrival on April 7, Limblifter is embarking on a record release tour that wraps up on March 28 in London at Rum Run- ners with local acts Red Arms and Traumahawk. On the surface it may look as though the band has been inactive during that time, but in truth, the collective members have hardly taken a break since the band formed as a side project back in 1995. To say that Ryan has kept active in the music community would be a serious understatement.

If you wanted the best car made in South Korea, the Sonata is what you’d have bought. Things started to change when Hyundai started exploring the lux- ury car market with bigger, more tech-packed models in the late ‘90s. Currently, in the Canadian market alone, the Genesis and Equus models sit above the Sonata as far as their family cars are concerned, while the Elantra and the Accent sit below it. The 2015 Sonata is smack dab in the middle of Hyundai’s product portfolio. However, after spending a week with a Sonata 2.0T Ultimate model, it sure didn’t feel that way. For a car that is not supposed to be a flagship, the 2015 Sonata 2.0T Ultimate sure has a lot of gadgets. Active cruise control: check. Blind spot detection: check. Rear cross traffic alert: check. Forward collision warning: check. Lane departure warning: check. Heated front and rear seats: check. Pan- oramic sunroof: check. All this and more can be found in the Sonata. One item that was oddly missing from the Ultimate model was a heated steering wheel, especially since some of the lower-trim So- nata models have it. The chunky, sporty steering wheel on the Ulti- mate does have pedal shifters, but I wish it was heated – a feature that CREDIT: “2015 HYUNDAI SONATA” BY DAVE PINTER (CC BY-NC-ND 2.0) / LIGHTENED is surely welcomed in the weather Hyundai makes a reasonably-priced family sedan to satisfy the choosiest of reviewers.
